Title: Bag Help
Post by: Liam-SCCC on January 10, 2010, 06:29:35 PM
Hi guys, I am looking for a new bag, and i know what dimensions i want, but I can't seem to find a bag that fits them.

i was wondering if you guys could maybe have a scout around for me.

90cm length x 35cm width x 40 cm depth, end pocket for shoes and a side pocket

Thanks in advance guys

Sorry guys I posted my dimensions wrong. 90 max length width 35 and 40 depth

I was looking at the Xiphos Stand up bag.

think i will leave the SPS, its gunna be too big. the GN looks to be the front runner as i think the Aero may be too bug although it was my first choice.

I just need to raise some funds now

Yes mate, very helpful, I think that may have made my mind up. You even have the same kit as me! The top pocket where you have your flip flops and stuff does that go down into the space at the top of the bag?

And does it stand up well enough?
Title: Re: Bag Help
Post by: danspink on January 10, 2010, 08:46:53 PM
yh it does go into the top of the bag but im a keeper so has more stuff in that if your just a batsman.

and yh i find that i need to put my pads they way they are in the pick to stand it up straight
Title: Re: Bag Help
Post by: Liam-SCCC on January 10, 2010, 09:58:41 PM
so would it stand up when my pads are out when in use?

for something marketed as a stand up bag, does it do it well enough?
Title: Re: Bag Help
Post by: danspink on January 10, 2010, 10:33:07 PM
yh it does with everything out its just one of the rods is snaped on mine (bought it like that )

and yh it does stand up well well worth the money mate

Ok, thanks mate, thought it looked a bit lop-sided!

Thanks, you have been very helpful

No where has them in stock until February I think, so I will have till then to save up

Saw this Liam as I am also looking for a stand up bag but this would be too big for me so thought might be of use to you:

Says it is brand new so might be worth a punt?
